My fstab is as follows but when using Yast and floppy I have had no

/dev/fd0             /media/floppy        subfs

Aha, it's the subfs kernel module that notices access to these
dirs, and magically mounts the stuff.

You need indeed to add "./media" to the excludes for that DLE.

I use mostly CentOS (and good old Slackware!) and they don't use
subfs.  That's why I could not reproduce it.
